My grandfather had an 25 acre land in Goa. He was called Shridhar in the official records while he was having a completely different name in Mumbai where he came to work. Why or how he changed his name is still unknown to us. Though he retained his family ties in Goa.
From then his name as Atul in Mumbai is common in all his bills and government official records. When he died 5 years back the Government officers in Goa refused to accept the death certificate in the name of Atul for Shridhar.
The NA land is vacant and cannot be transferred until we give them the Death certificate for Shridhar.
How do we go about it?
Also there are 6 brothers and 2 sisters who are the lawfully begotten children of Shridhar. One wants to sell the land while the other wants to construct a house to stay. The rest are completely not interested till someone makes a move.
What can be done? Can the land be divided in equal parts and can the brother sell his part to an outsider? Or first offer it to his own brother? Can the brother who wants to construct a house do it in his part of the land? What permissions are required?
